"Xiao Yu, mount!"

Just as the Horses fell to the ground, a pair of warm hands reached out.

Mu Qianyu didn't even have time to think before she reached out and landed on Xiao Chengyi's Horse Back with a tap of her foot.

At the same time, another wave of arrows came at him. Both their speed and numbers were much faster than before.

"You're courting death!"

Seeing the ruthless waves after waves of those arrows heading towards him, Mu Qianyu's eyes overflowed with killing intent. His expression instantly turned cold and a cold aura surrounded his body, as if he was releasing this killing intent from the depths of hell.

Feeling the cold killing intent from her body, Xiao Chengyi frowned, he extended his hand out to block the arrows and said gently: "Xiao Yu, do not use your true qi recklessly, be careful of the Cold Poison s on you."

The Cold Poison s on her body abhor anger the most.

Hearing this, Mu Qianyu was startled, but only for an instant, as her expression recovered back to normal.

She put away her whip, turned her cold eyes in four directions, and extended both her hands. Tens of silver needles shot out in quick succession.

Since these bastards dared to plot against her, then don't blame her for not showing any mercy!

Previously, she had been busy dealing with those arrows, so she naturally didn't have the time to use the Snow Moon Silver Needle.

Now that Xiao Chengyi had dealt with those arrows, those bastards wanted to try out the power of her Snow Moon Silver Needles!

The moment the silver needle was swung out, the attack stopped immediately, and Xiao Chengyi's horse had also reached the finishing point, running its final lap!

Following that, Xiao Chengjin and Yin Tianlan also reached the finishing point.

Mu Qianyu leapt down from the horse, and upon seeing the scene in front of him, her mouth twitched. She couldn't help but ask: "Who is first?"

She had just experienced an assassination attempt and was still in the mood to care about who got first.

Of course, she still wanted to pick a good horse.

"Us!"

Xiao Chengyi slightly smiled, and his thin lips pursed.

That warm smile, under the spring sun, was even more heartwarming.

"Us?"

Mu Qianyu harrumphed, and suddenly laughed: "My prince, then wouldn't I be basked in your glory?"

If not for this assassination, she would have only gotten second place. Right now, riding on the same horse as Xiao Chengyi and getting first place was truly a big advantage for her.

"Yes."

Prince Li nodded his head and said without a trace of politeness: "Since you know you have taken advantage of me, then I'll make two more sets of clothes next time."

"You wish! Do you think I'm an embroidery lady?"

Mu Qianyu snorted unhappily, then ran to see the assassin.

Xiao Chengjin stood behind the two of them and looked at them for a long time, until his gaze finally landed on Xiao Chengyi's white robes.

There were more than a dozen assassins lying beside the fence, but there was no blood on their bodies, nor were there any wounds. Everyone was shocked. If there were no wounds, then how did they die?

"Gu Zhao, go and see how people die?"

The crown prince no longer had abdominal pain and signaled Gu Zhao with his eyes.

Gu Zhao immediately walked towards the assassins and carefully examined them.

However, even after all the assassins checked, there were still no wounds.

Gu Zhao was slightly stunned. After pondering for a moment, he squatted down again and used his inner force to take out an extremely thin silver needle from the back of an assassin's head.

Everyone's expression changed. What a strong martial art.

Gu Zhao looked at the other assassins again, using the same method.

Mu Qianyu squinted her eyes, her expression cold.

This bastard was truly extraordinary, to be able to find the cause of death so quickly.

"This is?"

The Crown Prince didn't seem to understand what was going on, so he frowned.

After Gu Zhao took out the silver needles, he did not answer his master's questions. Instead, he walked in front of Mu Qianyu and spread the needles on his hand.

"So what?"

Mu Qianyu could not help but sneer. There was no emotion in her eyes as she coldly spoke, "They want to kill me, but it can't be that I can't retaliate. Are you implying that I should interrogate or denounce them?"

How funny, what happened to her hand? Was she concealing it just now?

Of course, the situation just now was too urgent, and it had practically happened in an instant. Mu Qianyu was also in the runningground, so it was possible that the people outside didn't see him clearly.

The moment she said those words, everyone's expressions changed. They didn't know how to describe it.

Such a weak looking girl had actually killed more than ten people in one move without leaving any trace behind. What kind of technique was this?

"Snow Moon Silver Needle!"

Gu Zhao looked at her carefully and frowned: "So lady is actually the disciple of Mu Xiao, one of the Seven Supreme of the Jianghu Tribe. No wonder he is so skilled, it is truly an honour to meet old senior Mu's disciple here."

Although he hadn't met Mu Xiao before, his status in the martial arts world was enough for the juniors to address him as senior.

"You've met my master?"

Mu Qianyu raised her brows, the expression in her eyes chilly.

"Nope."

Gu Zhao answered honestly.

"Then what are you blabbering about? You've never seen my master before, so what honor do you have to meet me? Hypocrite!"

She scoffed in disdain, and immediately scolded Gu Zhao for being hypocritical.

If it was someone else, then it would be fine, but this person was Gu Zhao.

Mu Qianyu had kept that throwing dagger all along, she would return it to the bastard sooner or later.

The girl's face instantly changed, and she had a look full of displeasure.

Gu Zhao was startled, he did not feel awkward, but on his face, there was a sense of scrutiny.

He always felt that this girl's movements were very familiar.

Mu Qianyu also narrowed her eyes as she looked at him, and she couldn't help but snort in her heart. Why did she remember that I haven't even returned the injuries you had given me back then?

As he thought about what happened that day, the killing intent from his body overflowed once again.

"Xiao Yu!"

Suddenly, a pair of warm hands reached over and grabbed her tightly clenched fists. They began to slowly pry open her hands, smooth them out, and then tightly gripped them in their palms.

Suddenly, Mu Qianyu was startled, she turned her head slowly, and looked into his gentle eyes, the fretful feelings in her heart instantly melted.

When the crowd saw how intimate the two of them looked, their mouths gaped wide open.

Prince Li had actually held her hand …

"Your Majesty, another eighteen assassins were found. However, all of them committed suicide by taking poison. Not a single one survived."

The Emperor returned to report after a thorough investigation.

"Get rid of the corpses and continue to investigate. You actually dare to make a move in front of me. You must be tired of living."

Emperor Jing's expression was currently not good.

There was actually someone who killed his son in front of him, and this was the place where the phoenixes and cries of Luan and Gao Zu were most favored by, so how could they allow a group of assassins to behave atrociously?

"Your majesty."

When the Emperor Jing opened his mouth, Mu Qianyu thought of something and asked, "Can I still choose a horse?"

Emperor Jing was stunned. He turned his head and looked at Yue Bing with his eyes glowing.

"Cough, cough, cough."

Xiao Qi coughed a few times. Girl, be careful not to show it so clearly, okay?

Mu Qianyu did not hear his hint, and pretended not to hear anything.

She was at a disadvantage if she did not have a horse, so she directly ignored Xiao Qi's suggestion and looked towards Emperor Jing as she continued to laugh: "Folk Girl and Prince Li were the first to arrive at the finish line, is it according to the rules …"

"Those who can make it to the final round are all qualified to choose their horses …"

Before he finished speaking, Prince Li kindly reminded him.
